Hi Adrian
Have not been keeping up with roots chat but just looking through now I do not think I ever answered your question about my father being Edward Eales - which yes he was -so sorry. Also as you mention a photograph I have quite a lot of close Bray family photos which were handed down through Edward - if you would be interested in seeing some I could email you some - just a thought.
Regards Anna

Have only just signed in again so could not re read previous messages sent hence I can now see I have repeated a lot that you said Adrian - sorry! But hey we are definitely related then. I have been doing the Bray family research for many years now so I have quite a mass of information including an autobiography written by Walter George (1862) and a very long story of the family's life out in Russia writtern by Kenneth Braidwood - Kenneth was the son of Walters sister  Sarah Ann who married John Braidwood.

My Great Grandfather was Walter George Bray b1862 2 Abenger Rd., Deptford Kent and his wife was Alice Mary Digby who he married after returning from St Peterburg on 9 June 1885 Baptist Chapel, East Hill. My Grandmother was one of their 9 children Florence Daisy Bray b 21 May 1894 St P. she married Richard Thomas Alfred Eales.
 Walter G first went to Russia in 1876  with his father William (1812 Deptford) and mother Sarah Wingell (2nd marriage)
In 1881 Walter was a Teacher at Ehlers Private Prep School and by 1882 he was private tutor to Prince Serge and Prince Esper Belesselsky
